ICP hearing systems for noisy workplaces
Hearing protection meets hearing system
Conventional hearing aids are not permitted for use at high-noise workplaces. The AS HÖRLUCHS ICP (Insulating Communication Plastic) hearing systems are permitted by construction law for use at high-noise workplaces. The system consists of a hearing aid with a specially developed high-noise program and an approved hearing protection plastic (SOWEI ICP).
The hearing system is therefore 100% PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) and 100% medical device, which is listed in the Register of Medical Devices. Thus the hearing aid can be used to its full extent in the private environment.
ICP BTE
The hearing system
The AS Hörluchs® ICP is suitable for people in noisy workplaces because it compensates for an existing hearing loss. In addition, it compensates for the resulting over-attenuation in the main perception area without damaging the hearing.
SOWEI ICP
The hearing protection
The SOWEI ICP insulating molding made of silicone is highly conformable and hardly noticeable or visible to the wearer. In addition, with its high passive attenuation value of 30 dB (with HLFs1 filter), it is ideal for ICP hearing aid fitting.
ICP TIK®
Hearing aid and protection
The ICP TIK® (“deep in the canal”) disappears almost invisibly in the auditory canal and therefore does not interfere with the wearing of protective goggles or helmets. It is also perceived by colleagues as hearing protection and not as a hearing aid.
